The internet has basically changed everything about our lives. Our lives are still being changed by it to this day. It has created so many news ways to share and exchange information that our world many never be the same. So no, I don’t think the internet has made art any less prominent in our culture. In fact I believe that the internet has allowed for the creation of new kinds of art. The best example of that would be any many-to-many project out there now. Those projects would not exist with out the internet. Also with new culture came new ways to create art. Not only has the internet changed art, other technology have allowed for the evolution of art.
Its also very interesting to think about how every culture thinks about art in different ways. It makes sense because most cultures do not value the same thing so thus why would their art be the same? They way people are raised often changed how people see art. It would be very interesting to see how different cultures and different time periods have changed the definition of art.
